I now have evrything installed and running correctly. VBox has all the sharing
and usb divices working. What I really need is a bigger display so I can set my
XP resolution to 1024.

Now back to an ongoing Ubuntu issue with my dispalys. Under XP and Windows 7 I
have two screens set to extended. This is nice when you need more desktop space.
Under Ubuntu it will only allow mirror mode which I have found useless on the
desktop.
